The Foxer

Share this:

Some people think I shouldn’t exist. Parts of me are solar-powered. I have a lexical connection with a WW2 AFV. I was completed in the year a famous pachyderm died. I’m in the Guinness Book of Records. I’m currently roughly the same height as an average British male adult. I have something in common with the protagonist of a Thomas Hardy novel. One of my kind provided the title for a 2002 movie. My homeland’s flag doesn’t include the colours yellow, green, of black. Riders are my doctors.

Feature Foxer

To fully defox this enlargeable geofoxer, identify all twelve locations plus the theme that links them.

(As the theme was inspired by one of Rorschach617’s collage suggestions, Roman requests that Rorschach doesn’t participate in the defoxing effort)

I’ve not had any luck with that Sherman in the last picture yet, or indeed the elevated subway line in New York City (I think it’s NYC because of the obscured yellow-green license plates). It doesn’t seem to be on the line that starts at Ditmars Boulevard in Queens.

Gah, nice one. I looked for Smoke Shop, 1440, never came up, i worked out the other shop was called ‘The Spot’ but the other place i assumed ‘ISLA’ was the end of a word, if i’d typed 1439 Isla, it’d have come up…

A very far-fetched link could be established with Jean Gabin, who served as a tank commander in the 2nd French Armoured Division and is better known as Commissaire Maigret, complete with bowler hat and overcoat.
